A citizen of the Cherokee Nation, Eliana Ramage is also the author of the debut novel To the Moon and Back, a Reese’s Book Club pick. “Ramage stuffs the book to the brim with big ideas and digressions, from indigenous history to family identity,” says NPR, “but it is the eminently human voice of Steph that keeps this maiden voyage feeling grounded and real.” Ramage discussed To the Moon and Back with Stephen Usery in the fall.
